Even with the hollow hand-wringing of Rich Lowry, the Heritage Foundation Healthcare, in all its iterations of a ‘Free Market’ answer to Single Payer, i.e. Medicare for all, is destined for failure? Mr. Lowry leads with a whimper, which makes this reader long for the capacity of Wm. F. Buckley Jr., for the production of stinging invective, at will, even in defeat. The hallowed remembrance of a Burkean Pretender?

The political answer to the Ryan Plan for Healthcare ‘reform’, that Lowry predicts will end in failure, is utterly predictable. Trump will place the blame on Ryan, and utter his infamous tag line: Your Fired! The manufactured cheap melodrama of the small screen is the Trump Way. Trump has one mode when it comes to failure!
